A ceramic dielectric PIFA antenna offers smallest footprint, superior gain characteristics and improved isolation over traditional PCB based antennas. This antenna has been developed for the top right hand corner edge of the component side of the Board (bottom left corner edge), the antenna has to be positioned on a non-ground (copper/metal free) area with the feed-point matched direct to the module. Please refer to Recommended Foot print Diagram (8.0 Page 13.). 2.0 Electrical Specifications The antenna has the electrical characteristics given in Table 1 under the Taoglas standard installation conditions as shown in the Evaluation Board. figure.

Time shown in the above figures is measured from the point when chip surface reaches temperature. 2. Temperature difference in high temperature part should be within 110°C. 3. After soldering, do not force cool, allow the parts to cool gradually. *General attention to soldering: ●High soldering temperatures and long soldering times can cause leaching of the termination, decrease in adherence strength, and the change of characteristic may occur. ● For soldering, please refer to the soldering curves above. However, please keep exposure to temperatures exceeding 200°C to under 50 seconds. ● Please use a mild flux (containing less than 0.2wt% Cl). Also, if the flux is water soluble, be sure to wash thoroughly to remove any residue from the underside of components that could affect resistance. SPE-11-8-091/A 05-Sep-11 Page 17 of 17 Cleaning: When using ultrasonic cleaning, the board may resonate if the output power is too high. Since this vibration can cause cracking or a decrease in the adherence of the termination, we recommend that you use the conditions below. Frequency: 40kHz Output Power: 20W/liter Cleaning Time: 5 minutes max SPE-11-8-091/A 05-Sep-11 Page 18 of 18
